Dust and blood

[Anastasia]

You recall what you heard earlier.

The King of Sorrow is said to be the Daemon, the evil that turns men to beasts and overthrows all of civilization. His symbol is said to be a bestial claw and he is also sometimes called the Beastlord. Your religious lore whispers to you that this is the same as Malar, the God of hunting, bloodlust and similar things. Most likely a particular interpretation or aspect of him.

Additionally, you hear a few other names. Gyim, said to be a delicate dancer who protects civilization, with a holy symbol of a star above a nebula. Your lore tells you this matches the holy symbol of Bahamut. The Eversight, said to be the watchman who sounds the alarm when civilization is under attack. His sigil of a gauntlet with an eye is a familiar one to your lore - Helm.

Alyssa sends to the others, Seems like Malar, Bahamut, and Helm are involved.

[Anastasia]

Two of the three are reasonable to talk to. Emily?

I've talked to Helm once or twice, but he's a solemn and serious man. Bahamut is a dragon with all that entails, though he is a goodly wyrm.

[Iron Dragoon]

Well, let's set up meetings.

[Anastasia]

Who are you going to approach here?

[Iron Dragoon]

Well, they're both involved/meddling, so both of them. Better to have a single discussion than a bunch of back and forth. I mean, Helm's not really friendly with anyone, but it's worth a shot.

[Anastasia]

Okay cool, how are you approaching them?

[Iron Dragoon]

I dunno? What would the protocol be?

[Anastasia]

Emily would say it depends on how you're doing it - formally or informally. Formally has a servant go there and do diplomacy. Informally is direct contact.

[Iron Dragoon]

Formally. This is probably going to be a Thing.

[Anastasia]

Okay, give me a d100 real quick.

[Anastasia]

Thus you send servants. It isn't long until you receive a sealed message from Bahamut, a scroll for you alone.

[Iron Dragoon]

Alyssa sits in her study and raises the protections, then reads the scroll.

[Anastasia]

The scroll reads as follows:

Speak plainly to me, what is it you desire with this, Alyssa? You are not one of the righteous. I await your response.

Bahamut.
